A2, Canterbury (Traffic Flow)

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish figures of the traffic flow on the A2 through Canterbury of goods vehicles proceeding to and from the Continent for the years 1966 to 1970, inclusive.

The figures required are not available but some records for August, 1965, showed an average daily flow of 1,750 goods vehicles west of Canterbury and of 1,230 southeast of Canterbury. The 1970 census shows an average daily flow of 2,000 goods vehicles west of Canterbury—an average annual growth of slightly under 3 per cent.
